I recently noticed that Firefox for me has pretty high battery usage, more than twice of what Connect (Lemmy) has at ~75% the screen time.
Could this be because of extensions? I’m using Dark Reader and uBlock Origin

Dark reader has lost popularity because I think its spyware now, but to the point: uB origin is super light on resources so I do not think so.
DarkReader is open-source, and on the Firefox recommended extensions list; what are you talking about?
Many “recommended” add-ons have terrible reviews because of some very negative aspect they have. And I am not talking for myself, its just the reviews. The reason I made the comment is to make people aware of it, no criticism behind.
Spyware? When did that happen?
Not sure, but I read comments on the mozilla add-ons site and somewhere else. And I did not see any reason why not to uninstall it since in some sites dark reader was counter productive. Just what I read…
